Guild Wars 2

Hey guys,

Basically I am looking for a no grenade or bomb build for engineers. I am tired of both and want to run with something different. I mainly want to use it for PVE and dungeons.

Thanks

EG/FT is OK, dont jugg, or people will be MAD.

BUT! both have some sick nasty swap goodies.

Basic idea is to constantly swap between Rifle/EG/FT, to FT 2, EG 2/4, and Rifle 3/5.

0/6/0/6/2 gives you perma swiftness/vigor. And have a massive 10 second fire field, once you get used to it, you should be able to lay it long way across a body of mobs when stacking.

First it was 1/6/0/5/2, cause you dont really need anything past 4 in alchemy, but 5 is extra damage since you WILL have boons on you, regardless. and the extra 1 in explosives was more power and Free damage on rolls.

Celestial acc is prefrence, if you wanna run zerks, go for it. Flame legion runes mega cheap alternative to strength runes(last I checked anyways.) since this build does not try and stack might outside of blasting your fire field.

I included rifle turret mearly for the blast. And the toolbelt is added dps for free after you blast it, or if you take the 6 in alchemy leaving it up gives you 70%~ fury upkeep, which is alright. It can help. And stacks vuln, its a decent turret utility wise. I was gonna run land mine, but the knock back can be annoying to party mates, so I went with rifle turret. Sigils on weapon, Prefrence. I like the added AoE/dps from damage crit sigils. Battle might be cool?

if you dont wanna run any turrets outside of healing, id take the 1/6/0/5/2 build and put in mine.

This build offers alot, and should be pretty fun if you are used to camping bomb/Nades. And it can blast for might/heals/do general EG kitten.

I guess you’re not concerned about being useful, so I suppose you could be one of those flamethrower guys then?

Just something I quickly made up. You’ll be nowhere near as useful to a team, but I suppose flamethrower’s the next best thing. That, or a S/D build.

so you dont want to use engi’s best (and 2nd best) dps potential in a place where pretty much everything is a dps race?

the next best thing is probably rifle autos, but the aoe is very very narrow

There are game modes where you can be very successful without bombs/grenades.

PvE/dungeon is not one of them.

You could try SD Rifle:

In open PvE the last trait would be ‘Scope’, for dungeons something like ‘Adrenal Implant’ or ‘Armor Mods’ is properly more useful.
